AGENCY: VerDate jul<14>2003 15:34 Aug 04, 2005 Jkt 205001 Notice. SUMMARY: This is notice, in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 209(c)(1) and 37 CFR 404.7(a)(1)(i), that the National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, is contemplating the grant of an exclusive patent license to practice the inventions embodied in U.S. Patent Application 60/508,750, filed October 3, 2003 [DHHS Ref. E–075–2003/0–US–01] and PCT Application PCT/US04/32649 [DHHS Ref. E–075–2003/0–PCT–02], entitled Use of Cripto-1 as a Biomarker for Neurodegenerative Disease and Method of Inhibiting Progression Thereof, to Neuronascent, Inc., which is located in Clarksville, Maryland. The patent rights in these inventions have been assigned to the United States of America. The prospective exclusive license territory may be worldwide and the field of use may be limited to the development and use of Cripto small molecule inhibitors to treat and prevent Alzheimer’s disease in humans. DATES: Only written comments and/or applications for a license, which are received by the NIH Office of Technology Transfer on or before October 4, 2005 will be considered. ADDRESSES: Requests for copies of the patent application, inquiries, comments, and other materials relating to the contemplated exclusive license should be directed to: Michelle A. Booden, Ph.D., Technology Licensing Specialist, Office of Technology Transfer, National Institutes of Health, 6011 Executive Boulevard, Suite 325, Rockville, MD 20852–3804; telephone: (301) 451–7337; Facsimile: (301) 402–0220; e-mail: boodenm@mail.nih.gov. The technology relates to another use of Cripto-1 as a biomarker and possible therapeutic target for a variety of neurodegenerative diseases, including NeuroAids, Alzheimer’s disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease and encephalitis. Cripto-1 appears to be overexpressed by 20-fold or more in NeuroAids and as such, may be enhanced in other inflammatory neurological diseases, and thus assist in the early detection of neurological changes associated with these diseases, as well as a possible therapeutic target for slowing progression. The prospective exclusive license will be royalty bearing and will comply with the terms and conditions of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7. The prospective exclusive license may be granted unless within sixty (60) days from the date of SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00055 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 45407 this published notice, the NIH receives written evidence and argument that establishes that the grant of the license would not be consistent with the requirements of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7. Applications for a license in the field of use filed in response to this notice will be treated as objections to the grant of the contemplated exclusive license. Comments and objections submitted to this notice will not be made available for public inspection and, to the extent permitted by law, will not be released under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 552. Dated: July 28, 2005. Steven M. Ferguson, Director, Division of Technology Development and Transfer, Office of Technology Transfer, National Institutes of Health.
